A railroad switch point on the tracks at the Golden Spike National Historic Park There is a lot I don't know. I don't know who will lead the United States for the next four years (at the time I'm composing this post, that hasn't been determined yet.) I don't know when covid cases will stop rising in my state and start decreasing. I don't know how challenging situations will turn out. There is much uncertainty in life. Living in limbo-land is hard. It's emotionally exhausting. It can be immobilizing. My body seems to think chocolate is the answer, but I know that isn't a long-term solution. What do I need in times like these? I need to REMEMBER . 1. R esilience. People are resilient. I am resilient. I'm thankful for resilience. 2. " E ach Life That Touches Ours for Good." So many people, both those I know in "real life," and those I have only met virtually, have taught me, encouraged me, and been examples to me. I'm thankful

Thanks, Clark. The lions remind me of Patience and Fortitude, the lions outside the New York Public Library.
DeleteGood to see a photo of a cat with hair on your blog. :)
ReplyDeleteTee hee!
DeleteYour lilacs are so beautiful? Are you able to grow them where you are? They won't grow here and I have only found them at the florist once -- I can still smell them! They were my favorite growing up.
ReplyDeleteYes, lilacs do grow here. At least theoretically. I see them all over, but mine seem to grow well for a while then die. I'm crossing my fingers that I can get some established enough to bloom!
DeleteThat is the most beautiful calico I've ever seen! (Sorry, Ruby!) Love the laughing girl, too! I wish I had a lilac bush. My great aunt had a ginormous one outside her kitchen (easily 10 feet tall with a girth to match). Someone told her eggshells were good for lilacs, so every time she used eggs, she tossed the eggshells under the bush. Maybe it worked.
ReplyDeleteShe was a beautiful cat, but wasn't the friendliest. I was a bit scared of her, to tell the truth. :-)
